I just finished reading a book about German refugees and how they were treated in Denmark.

Its a very interesting book. A lot of boys in their mid teens (16) were in the refugee camps, even though they secretly wanted to be in the Wehrmacht. They were not old enough.

It seems like a lot of effort was put into convincing the German refugees that Nazis were the baddies and revealing what really had happened. Some where executed though, for still believing in Nazism
